| description | Vocabulary of any language undergoes a natural evolution. In many cases this centuries-long process is related to
several factors, including the penetration of new words into the language lexis. Similarly, the historical development of
the Slovak language and its enhancement can be observed by examining the adoption of words from other languages.
At a time when Latin was the only official language as well as the language of scholars and religious institutions in the
Hungarian Kingdom, the penetration of Latinisms into the lexis of the old Slovak was significant. This trend was still
evident in the 18th and 19th centuries marked by the beginning revivalist efforts. Domestication of adopted words - that
initially stood at the edge of the language standard - was significantly influenced by innovative trends and technologies.
The study does not primarily examine penetration of foreign words from modern languages, but it aims to analyse the
process of naturalisation of Latinisms in Slovak and their use at different language levels. |
